Line in my processed jupiter!

Can anyone help me?

I cant seem to get rid of these two lines in my processed jupiter, I have used stackograph to get this far but it does not take away the lines! What can I do? Was it from the webcam? The webcam only cost me £3 if so.

I used 500 frames in black and white and wavelets!

Thanks for any help! [emoji92]

For a £3 webcam it's an amazing image

I've had that artefact before bit can't remember why. Is there anything on the individual frames of the video in this region? Have you tried stacking with say registax? Can you upload the video file to drop box and let others have a go at it?

Hey, the lines only appear during wavelet tweaking on registax. Before i tweak the wavelets its just a bit blurry but seems to appear straight away after just a small wavelet tweak!

I dont have dropbox yet but I will make an account and get back to you on that ✨

 OK, I'll wait for the video. Send me a message when it's done as I might miss the update on the thread.

I'm pretty sure this artefact is a result from the algorithm of the stacking program. Registax sometimes did the same for planets (bright objects in dark sky). The registration points devide the image with tessation and fit the aprts on the individual (AVI) images. With a few alignmentpoints the tesselation bounderies sometimes show, becaues of the small adjustments arount points. By choosing more or other registration points it disappears. As a matter of fact, for planets, just choosing only 1 algnmetpoint in the middle in a contrasted area is sufficient. Differential seeing does not distort that much across a planetary disk.

NB.: I had to check the value of £3 in € - boy, this image is an enormous value for money!

A great pity about the lines because that is a lovely image, especially for a 3£ camera.
